Selling Wool ДЄt any point, you may take a pallet of wool to the SpinneryВ to be sold. If Sheep go unfed, or Wool production ceases due to lack of room, you will effectively be losing money. You can use a Front LoaderВ to move the pallet, or simply push it aside with any vehicle.ДЄs a result of this mechanism, you will need to pay attention to your sheep, to ensure that they are fed, and that the pallet on the slab has enough room for Wool to accumulate. In order for Wool production to resume, the pallet must be removed from the spawn area to give room for a new pallet to appear. As long as the six pallets are full, no more Wool will be produced. On the spawn area of the sacks of wool there is place for 6 pallets of wool. You can check the actual amount of Wool on the pallet by looking in your info screen under the 'Sheep' subheading. Note that a new sack will appear when the previous sack has been filled, so the number of sacks does not actually indicate how much Wool has been produced. Each sack contains approximately 500 liters of Wool. The pallet can only hold a total of 2,000 liters, making up 4 sacks of Wool. The pallet will slowly be loaded with more and more sacks of Wool, as it is produced. Wool is automatically accumulated into sacks and placed on a pallet that will appear outside the Sheep Pasture, on the east side. Wool production rates are constant, at around 23 liters per Sheep, per day. This material can be sold at the SpinneryВ for a profit. Wool Production ДЄs long as Sheep are fed (see above), they will produce Wool. When it runs out, Productivity will again drop back to 0%, and no more Wool will be produced. A tractor with front loader is all you'll need to feed your sheep with this method.ДЄs long as there is at least 1 liter of Grass in the trough, it will be consumed at a constant rate of about 15 liters per Sheep, per day. Another option is placing a Hayloft ($ 90,000) and unload hay into the loft which you've collected using a loading wagon. Hay is also functionally identical to simple Grass, despite the extra effort required to create the Hay. In fact, you can also feed Sheep using Hay Bales, by putting them into a Bale Shredder (Not in Farming Simulated 17, may be a mod) and unloading the shredder into the trough. Note that you may use either Grass or Dried Grass to feed sheep - there is no difference be tween these substances as far as the game is concerned.

This will result in the cleanliness percentage to go down, therefore the productivity of wool will decrease. This can be seen as grass or hay lays outside of its designated trough. The only thing that will slow the production rate of wool is if the feeding area is dirty. This image shows the dirty feeding zone at the sheep Pasture Sheep Productivity cannot be any number other than 0% or 100% - indicating 'unfed' and 'fed', respectively. Information on sheep productivity and requirementsДЄs long as the feeding trough contains at least 20000 litres of Grass, the Productivity value of the Sheep will be exactly 100%, and they will produce a set amount of WoolВ (more on this below).

Press the appropriate button, and Grass will be moved from the wagon to the trough. Drive the Loading Wagon to the trough next to the Sheep Pasture - when you get close enough, you'll get the option to unload the wagon. Then, collect the Grass using a Loading Wagon. First, you will need to mow some Grass, using a Mower. Unlike Cows, Sheep will only require GrassВ and Water. To get Wool production started, you will need to feed your sheep. This means that the Sheep will only lose you money, since they require a maintenance cost. When Sheep are first acquired, their Productivity level is 0%, which means that they will not produce any Wool. If you don't feed them, or do not sell their Wool, Sheep will bring you a net loss. As long as the Sheep are fed and their area is clean, they will produce Wool, which can be sold for about $5000 at the Spinnery. You may sell your Sheep at $1500 each, less than half of their purchase value.Д®ach Sheep has an upkeep cost of $20 per day. When the sheep are in the pasture and trailer the game animates sheep at the actual location, it will take into account as many sheep as you've bought, when determining their production and consumption rates. Purchased sheep can either be placed directly into your Sheep Pasture for a charge of $200 per sheep or by transporting them yourself with an animal trailer for free.
